Real. Unscripted. Unforgettable. This is your big day...you've planned it for months, dreamed of it for even longer. Now that it's here, you want to remember it forever. You deserve the best images possible, and I'd love to be the one to provide those for you.

Photographs are important. They are quiet documents of moments both monumental and personal. They help us remember and relive those moments.

I am a father, painter, professor, designer, dancer, and pancake pro. All these things make me a better photographer, which means your photographs will be different from others. I believe in beauty, but also believe in meaning.

Just be yourself and I'll do the rest.

I'm a photojournalist turned wedding photographer and loving it. I enjoy capturing moments and working my butt off all day long. Worked for newspapers and magazines for many years. The demands put on me by photo editors helped me grow and I find that bride and grooms are much nicer.

While I've won a Pulitzer Prize for photography so far I've not tried to win any Knot or Wedding Wire awards. Update: I am now a Knot Hall of Fame member. Humbled and honored. ;) Please don't hold this against me. My photography style is more classic and timeless over trendy and I'm not about following the trends or photoshop actions that will look dated in a few years. I love growing and learning from others and never stop learning.

Unbelievable stories deserve unforgettable photography

I'm driven by the purpose of providing couples with expertly crafted images that reflect genuine emotions and connections. My commitment to blending creativity and technical skill ensures that each moment is preserved in its most authentic form without my influence, allowing couples to relive their stories with clarity and depth. I'm inspired by the fact that some stories deserve more. More care, more attention, more art.

Hey! I'm Loren and I'm one half of Adore Wedding Photography based in Toledo Ohio. My wife and I specialize in documentary wedding photography and live for moments! I'm passionate about Cats, Coffee, and most of all my family.

Back in 2010, I met the most incredible person on this earth, Lacey Jo. A few years later, I put a ring on that girl and sealed the deal. We got married at a quaint brewery, having our first dance in a beautiful garden under the stars with twinkle lights above us.

Let's hang out!

As a complete moment junkie (No therapy needed), I am passionate about being unique and different. I am weird, I am hard working and I put over 100% into my craft. When you meet me, you will understand that all that is 100% true.

We are husband and wife photography team, James and Genevieve, based near Cleveland, Ohio. We love photographing wedding moments with artistry. Tears of joy, nervous hands, heartfelt laugh, shy smile. We strive to capture real love photographed in a way that represents you.

Our philosophy results in photography that is as unique as the wedding day and the people in it. It isn't about a style, but about capturing the most beautiful, emotionally relevant record of the events and feelings of the day.

The most meaningful moments of a wedding always happen unexpectedly and are usually gone in an instant. Husband and wife photographers James and Genevieve Nisly approach wedding photography with this in mind. They strive to capture not only the planned events of the day, but the utterly unplanned reactions that happen as a result.

This philosophy results in photography that is as unique as the wedding day and the people in it. It isn't about a style, but about capturing the most beautiful, emotionally relevant record of the events and feelings of the day.

I wrote this after returning home from work the night I met my wife, Leslie, for the first time:

"So I'm scrubbing dishes in the back at Panera Bread when I look up through the small circular window on the door and what do I see? To put it bluntly, the most defined feminine calves my little eyes have ever gazed upon. It was at that moment that I made the executive decision that the dishes were clean enough and it was time to check on our new guests in the dining room."

I laugh at myself more often than not. It helps boost my confidence.

I love the show Breaking Bad. Who doesn't?

I'm pretty active. You kind of have to be in order to be a great photographer. I am usually doing something that requires balance (slack-lining, longboarding, rock climbing, etc.).

I don't care too much for beer - unless it's Founders Double Chocolate Oatmeal Breakfast Stout, then I'm all about it. Blue Moon works, too.

My wife and I are learning to love each other. I think we are learning well. We forgive well, I think-if Les disagrees, I bet she forgives me for saying it.

I refuse to let Les sleep alone. That's not to say we won't go to bed pissed at each other every once in a while. But when those nights come, and Les heads to the couch, I sleep on the living room floor beside her.

Believe the best in people. It makes a difference.
